Question 1

I recently visited a dermatologist because I'm experiencing hair fall. They prescribed me these dutamax 0.5mg tablets, and I'm a bit concerned. Are these safe to use, and do they have any side effects I should know about? I came across something that mentioned it might change libido, and that worries me. Can you give me some insight into this?

Accepted Answer

Minoxidil 5. for local application ,once daily for 3-6 weeks is advised, tab finasteride 5 mg once daily for 3-6 weeks is advised to the patient.

Question 2

I've been dealing with these dark patches on my inner thighs for months now and they just won't go away. It's really bugging me because, along with that, I've constantly got this urge to eat and I'm feeling super tired all the time. What could be going on?

Accepted Answer

The dark patches on your inner thighs could be a sign of a condition called acanthosis nigricans, which is often associated with insulin resistance. To address this, I recommend using a topical cream containing hydroquinone and tretinoin, such as Tri-Luma cream, to lighten the dark patches. Additionally, managing your insulin levels through lifestyle changes and medications like metformin can help improve the condition. For the increased appetite and tiredness, it is important to address the underlying cause, which may involve further evaluation and treatment.

Question 3

I've been using Melacare for a long time, but then I started traveling a lot for work between Pune and Mumbai, and my skin is now completely sunburned and darker. I used to be fair, but now my skin is almost black, and it's a lot. Can I start using Melacare again? Will that help me get my skin back to how it was before? I'm really worried about showing my face to anyone right now and could really use your advice.

Accepted Answer

refer to dermatologist

If Lumiedge under eye gel did not show any improvement, you can try using a different product containing hydroquinone, kojic acid, and vitamin C. You can use Melalite cream at night and apply a thin layer of Kojivit Plus gel in the morning. Remember to use sunscreen during the day.
